Looking for fill on Maui



Recommended Posts

Aloha!!

My daughter is going to school on Maui and has been banded for a year. She really needs a fill and cannot afford to fly home to Oregon to get one. I am wondering if there are any fill doctors on Maui, and if not, are there any on Oahu or any of the other islands?

Mahalo!!!

Hi Marianelaine, I had my surgery on Oahu by Dr. Steven Fowler at Castle medical center and I know that he does fills for patients other than his own. He is very nice, by the way, we pay $250 for a fill, but get to go back as many times as necessary within a month for "adjustments". Tell your daughter good luck.

Aloha fellow Oregonian! I moved from Oregon to Hawaii almost 3 years ago. I had my surgery with Dr. Fowler as well, however, I had the gastric bypass rather than the lapband. :biggrin2:

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
